[This is a darkly humorous comedy, not a power fantasy. Most of the laughs come from the shameless schemes and misfortunes of the scumbag protagonist. When reading, be sure not to put yourself in his shoes. You’ll miss a lot of jokes and might even find it frustrating.]
(Early on, most of the humor comes from the protagonist’s tragic misfortunes. Later, it comes from all his shameless, low-down ways of tricking people. It only gets funnier as the story goes on.)
Synopsis: The protagonist is a womanizing scumbag who, in his previous life, swindled several women out of their money and virtue, before finally getting what he deserved and dying.
After his death, his soul transmigrates to another world and he becomes a eunuch. Having grown accustomed to enjoying women, he can’t accept this reality at all. Just as he’s about to take his own life, he learns that reaching a certain level of cultivation will allow him to regrow severed limbs and become a man again.
Determined to become a man again, the protagonist decides to abandon all dignity and use any means necessary to cultivate himself back into one. The problem is, he has neither a talent for cultivation nor a System to help him. He’s also afraid of dying and loves the finer things in life, so he can’t stick with hard work.
But none of this can stump the cunning, shameless protagonist. Relying on the same talent for lies and deceit that served him in his previous life, he begins an utterly shameless cultivation career in this new world.
"A reminder: Don’t put yourself in the scumbag protagonist’s shoes while reading. For the best experience, imagine you’re watching someone get pranked. In this story, either the protagonist gets pranked or he pranks others, and the humor is often dark."
There was a lot of water talk in the first seven chapters, and I only started practicing in the eighth chapter. It felt weird while reading it. Everyone has their own preferences. Anyway, I have already tried poison [smiles]
